Diminishing resources, rising prices, increased sensitivity to environmental issues; the efficient use of energy is more important today than ever before, especially in areas with high consumption. Using intelligent power management together with energy-efficient components can easily optimize energy management in process plants and significantly reduce operating costs. Take advantage of systematic, scalable solutions: from basic power monitoring to complete, integrated energy management with transparent visualization of consumption, originator-based allocation and automatic load management.

Time for standardization: With SIMATIC PCS 7 PowerControl it is now possible to combine process automation and automation of electrical switchboards for medium voltages from 4 to 30 kV in a control system. This raises your plant's degree of integration, standardizes process control, permits effective energy management and thus contributes to cost minimization across the entire lifecycle of the plant.
